It is not just political correctness bug, but avoid your own work and influence policy decisions bug has bitten these courts. They need to be kicked hard to tell them their place and do their main job.

I think a directive from the President himself to SC needs to be made regarding refraining from taking up social/religious issues priority basis because of influential groups while civil and criminal as well as financial cases are kept pending over years and years. The jalikattu issue is a prime example that SC is not being careful of either its priority or social traditions.

But, I don't understand what prevents the BJP to form a ministry or national commission for Hindu affairs which should be attending to Hindus' needs? BJP is being proven worse for Congress, since at least with Congress in power we could have hoped for a regime change and change in approach through new Hindu-friendly regime. But, the so called Hindu Nationalistic party is proving itself an eunuch when comes to safe-guarding Hindu interests!

The govt. itself should have approached against SC's stay, not few individuals. A special petition before Chief Justice requesting for vacating the stay could have been brought highlighting that such a stay order is against the fabric of fundamental rights of people. But, nothing has been done!

Last but not the least, an appeal before President of India could have been made to safeguard the traditional values, where President with consultation with the Cabinet could have allowed jalikattu to carry on without any hamper at least for this year.

it seems, do unto the petitioners what the peacefools did to the momin-e-PETA outside Bhopali jama masjid, and everybody from PETA to petitioners to HC to SC will start falling in line! I don't see any other reason why otherwise they are so meek in case of the mainorities.
